I tend to agree. I think that race in video games should be based on the story line and not about how much publicity a game is going to get because the designers choose one race over another.
For example, if the story line is about a White Ninja (insert obscure joke about "Beverly Hills Ninja" with Chris Farley) who is trying to live up to his father's quest to become the best Ninja. Then I would want that character to be White and not another race because the story does not fit the bill.
